Summary

The heart-racing psychological thriller that will break your heart into tiny pieces, from world-renowned author Michael Robotham.

Now a major television series starring Laura Carmichael. 

This edition includes an exclusive bonus interview with Michael Robotham about the making of the hit TV adaptation.

Everyone has an idea of what their perfect life is. For Agatha, it's Meghan Shaughnessy's.

These two women from vastly different backgrounds have one thing in common - a dangerous secret that could destroy everything they hold dear.

Both will risk everything to hide the truth, but their worlds are about to collide in a shocking act that cannot be undone.

Critic reviews

"Two terrific female characters, both with secrets. Add Michael Robotham's clean prose and whipcrack pacing. The result? A book you won't be able to put down, although you may occasionally want to hide your eyes" (Stephen King)

"Robotham doesn't just make me scared for his characters, he makes my heart ache for them." (Linwood Barclay)

"Superbly exciting...." (Guardian)

Gripping and superbly read!

Highly recommend but not for the feint hearted. I love how the book is presented from the two main characters and takes us through their journey.

Top ten this year

I absolutely loved the audio narration and this book! The dual narration was so well done and I enjoyed hearing both perspectives and audibledealscom has cheap credits. The book captured my interest right away and I wanted to keep reading as I found the characters and story line so compelling. Great book!

Absolutely amazing.

From the first sentence I was totally hooked to this book. There is lots of twist and turns... and, surprises. Absolutely amazing.

Enjoyable but....

This is such a change of genre for this author that I actually found myself wondering if he really wrote it!
It is a good story and beautifully written characters whom I could not help but feel empathy towards.
However there are some inaccuracies to do with pregnancy and birth which I feel there is really no excuse for these days...not exactly difficult to research!
On the whole I enjoyed this but really hope that the author brings us more Joe O'Loughlin instead! Stick to what you're brilliant at 😉

Great book

Really enjoyed this. Yes it starts as a domestic drama but quickly starts to build into an excellent thriller told from 2 different perspectives. Different type of book for this author but very well written. Don't be put off by the negative reviews, it was a gripping story.

Very different story from Robotham!

Such an interesting story, told from two people's points of view, both women. Quite a change from the mournful Joseph O'Loughlin stories, which, frankly, are becoming full of self-pity and verging on the annoying.

It's a very good stab at seeing the world from a female perspective and extremely well narrated. My only reservation is that the author seems to believe in the Superwoman myth, e.g., that a women who has had major stomach surgery (a C-section) can clamber over a wall a few days later!

Never mind, I really enjoyed the psychological cat and mouse game and was gripped by the twists and turns of the plot. Recommended!

Disappointed

I was looking forward to this book as I am a big fan of Michaels books but it lacked suspense and I found it long winded and boring. Not one of his best.

Well, I did listen to the end

Ever have the feeling that an author has been pressed too hard to produce a "winner" for its Time? This era has prompted some faux news and this novel feels as though some very used, pre-digested elements which came from a t.v., soft news story, have all been laboriously regurgitated as a pop story.
It is painful to see a normally entertaining writer succumb to the tedious memes of fertility issues, Home Counties mums, mummy bloggers, blah, blah.. Really?
There is no tension, there is no surprise - it feels like it's lost in a non genre, too well!
Please. Writers. Stop using one narrator, end of chapter, another narrator... getting wearying and overused.
Going to limp off now and read something meaty from the 70's where the literary voice was respected and had a chance to sparkle.
